"𓏏" meaning in All languages combined

See 𓏏 on Wiktionary

Symbol [Egyptian]

Forms: t [canonical], t [romanization]
Etymology: Generally taken to represent a hemispherical loaf of bread, with the phonogrammatic value t deriving by rebus principle from its use as a logogram for t (“bread”). This glyph was conventionally colored black or blue, like 𓏙 X8 (generally interpreted as a conical bread loaf), but comparing those to 𓏐 X2 and 𓏑 X3 where bread is yellow, Nunn writes that the black/blue coloration raises questions about their identification as bread. He notes that 𓉞 O7 and similar glyphs have this glyph at the center, and because temples were symbolically built on "the primaeval mound of creation", black and blue could represent mud there and this could "explain why this 'loaf' X1 is always painted black or blue, even … in words for bread, where these colours seem out of place".
